A vcnturesOme Alpine Climber bro
Down . Fearful Prccipice.

A venturos0me Alpine Climber drops
Down . Fearful Precipice.
A writer in the Pail Mall Gazette
says: We were fortunate in finding
for company at the table the officers of
an Alpine regiment. These Com
pagnie Alpine are a branch Of the
service OF which Italy is justly proud.
The men are chosen from the Alpine
townships and are a magnificent set of
troops, splendidly trained to their bust
ness, which is the protection of the
Italian frontier. In winter they are
cautioned in the large towns at the
foot Of the Alps, Belluno. Conegliano,
Verona; but the summer months they
spend camping out among the noun
tains, studying the lie Of the valleys
and getting the various paths across
the mountains by heart. Their duty
takes them into wild places, and many
were the stories of adventure that the
captain had to tell. One i'm particular
struck Our fancy. The captain was
with his company at Agordo, and
wished to take his men for a march
round the Pale di San Luciano. AT
the inn he offered 80 francs for a guide,
but no one would close with the offer,
the difficulty of the walk being well
known. While the discussion was 60
ing on in came "a tall young fellow
famous for the airs he gave himself.
Hearing what was on foot, he turned
to the captain and said: 'Sig. Capt.
tano, l will take your offer; but, mind
you, where | go none of your men will
follow me-" This challenge nut the
captain on his mettle. Selecting thirty
of his best men, he started the next
morning with his guide. The young
fellow led him up and up, purposely
missing the true path, until he and the
thirty-one soldiers behind him were
clinging 70 the sheer precipices Of San
Lucan0; then he turned and said:
"Sig. Capitano, l have missed the way.
Tell your men to go back. 1 will go
on across this place and meet you
lower down." The captain, in a rage,
gave the order to go back, and the SOL
diers began feeling their way backward
along the cliff, not daring to turn
round. The guide set off by himself,
but he had not taken two steps when a
rock on which he laid his hold gave
way and he fell. The soldiers turned
pale as death, but the captain said:
Sergeant you saw him fall; go down
and fetch him." and the sergeant
did. When he got to the foot of the
cliffs he found the mangled body of
the guide, whose own words had come
so true: where l go none of your
men will follow me-

The Correct Time.

There are very few men who do not pride
themselves on always having the correct time,
and wonderful and delicate mechanisms are
devised to enable them to do &c. But the
more delicate a thermometer is made the
more subject it becomes to arrangement, and
unless it be kept always perfectly clean 1t
soon loses its usefulness. What wonder, then,
that the human machine-so much more
delicate and intricate than any work of man
should require to be kept thoroughly cleansed.
The liver is the handspring of this complex
structure, and on the impurities left in the
blood by a disordered liver depend most Of
the ills that flesh is heir to. Even consump-
ton (which is lung scrofula) is traceahle to
the imperfect action Of this organ. Kidney
diseases, skin diseases, sick headache, heart
disease, dropsy, and a long catalogue of grave
maladies have their origin in a torpid or slug
gish liver. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis-
covery, by establishing a healthy, normal &C
ton of the liver, acts as q cure and preventive
of these diseases.

Not Taking in Washing.

A gentleman from Schley came to
the city last week and was requested
by a pretty little "school marin" over
thtre to call at a certain store for a
bundle and carry it back for her. The
gentleman did as requested, got the
bundle, and gave it u the lady, who
was very profuse in her thanks. Tues
day the same gentleman had occasion
to visit the city, and the pretty little
lady met him with smiles and requested
him to return the bundle to the major
with her compliments, and to inform
him that ''she was very thankful for
his kind intentions, but that she was
not taking in washing this week"
The major opened the bundle and
found half a dozen dirty shirts that he
thought were in the hands of his
washerwoman. He wilted at the sight.

Couldn't Escape Them.

A Wayne county farmer, who had a
little time to spare during the drought,
went at it and created even artificial
mounds to resemble graves in a field
close to the road. Signboards were
put up and labeled: ''Tramp No. L."
''Tramp No. p" and SO on through,
and when the work was finished the
granger went up to the house with a
grin on his face and said to his wife.
"That ere dodge will beat all the
laws in Michigan to keep tramps
away"
Breakfast was not yetover next morn
ing when there was a knock on the
kitchen door, and the farmer opened it
to find five gaunt tramps standing in a
half-circle.
"You here!" he yelled, as soon as he
could credit his senses Didn't you
see those graves down by the road?"
"We did, SIR" answered the Oldest
tramp for all. "That's just why we
stopped. We wanted to know if they
came to their death by over eating"

The Insect World.

We're it possible to take q census Of
the individual insects upon the globe,
the result would be al array of figures
Of whose meaning We could form little
conception. Members of each species
multiply in countless millions. yet even
the number OF distinct species is SO
great that we can hardly do more than
guess ct il. Entomologists generally
concede that upward OF hundred
thousand species OF insects have been
recognized, and some authors place the
number as high as one hundred and
fifty thousand, while it is probable that
these may represent not more than q
tenth Of the number actually inhabit-
ing the earth's surface. Probably not
less than one-half Of the indicated
FORMS" says Professor Heilprin, "be-
long TO the order Coleoptera, or bee
ties, which is by far the most numer-
ously represented Of all the orders.
The Lepidoptera, or butterflies, have
thus far yielded some fifteen thousand
species-or about one-ffteenth of the
total number (2O0,OO0) estimated by
Speyer for the world at large-and an
equal number may, perhaps, be cred
tied TO the Hymenoptera (bees, wasps,
and ants), the Hemiptera (bugl, and
Dipters ffies). The Orthoptera, or
straight-winged insects. which include
tho locusts, grasshoppers, etc. are con-
siderably less numerous, while the
species Of Melted forms (Neuroptera)
probably number only about two thou
sand. The insects are most numerously
developed in the tropics, but they are
by no means rare in the coolest re-
gions reached by man. Sir George
Mares brought home no less than forty
i've species Of true insects from beyond
the seventy-eighth parallel Of latitude

hundred in Iceland. Many of the in
